[patch -next] blk-mq: NULL dereference in __blk_mq_alloc_rq_maps()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We shouldn't set "set->tags" to NULL here because if we return -ENOMEM
here then we call the function a second time.  On the second time
through the loop then the statement:

	set->tags[i] = blk_mq_init_rq_map(set, i);

will Oops.  Also it is a memory leak and a layering violation.  There is
a correct call to kfree(set->tags) in blk_mq_alloc_tag_set().
